Study of malachite green adsorption by organically modified clay using a batch method
TL;DR: In this article, the adsorption of toxic dye malachite green from aqueous effluents by organically modified clay was studied in a batch system, where the organoclay (OC) used was prepared by the intercalation of cationic surfactant hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide in a Mexican montmorillonite.

Preparation and adsorption characteristics of an imprinted polymer for selective removal of Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solutions
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel Cr(VI) ion imprinted polymer (Cr(VI)-IIP) was synthesized by bulk polymerization with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as a crosslinking agent, azodiisobutyronitrile as an initiator, and acetone as a solvent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetics and mechanism of methylene blue sorption onto palm kernel fibre
TL;DR: The kinetics and mechanism of the sorptive removal of methylene blue dye from aqueous solution using palm kernel fibre as adsorbent have been investigated in this article. But the results of the experiments were limited to the first 5min of the reaction and then deviated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of cationic polymeric adsorbent and dye removal isotherm, kinetic and thermodynamic
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of operational parameters (adsorbent dose, pH, dye concentration and salt) on dye removal was studied and the dye removal followed the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-first order kinetics.
